Subject: [PATCH 1/4] lockdep, timer: Fix del_timer_sync() annotation
Date: Thu, 03 Feb 2011 15:09:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110203141548.039540914@chello.nl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20110203140940.072679794@chello.nl

[-- Attachment #1: timer-del_timer_sync.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1165 bytes --]

Calling local_bh_enable() will want to actually start processing
softirqs, which isn't a good idea since this can get called with IRQs
disabled.

Cure this by using _local_bh_enable() which doesn't start processing
softirqs, and use raw_local_irq_save() to avoid any softirqs from
happending without letting lockdep think IRQs are in fact disabled.
